The Prodigies War

“Father, don’t you know that no matter how amazing those people are, I won’t so much as look at them!” Xia Xiaochong huffed at her unserious father.

Xia Xinglie suppressed a laugh and said aloud, “But I find that Jin Duyi is pretty good. Even his name is rather unique and domineering.”

Seeing that Xia Xiaochong was so annoyed that tears were about to come out, Xia Xinglie stopped teasing her. “Okay, okay, Father was just joking with you before.”

Xia Xiaochong blinked pitifully. “Father, you should at least tell me whether Big Brother Lin Xun is at this Dao Debate Assembly or not.”

“Yes.” Xia Xinglie answered without hesitation.

Xia Xiaochong’s clear, dark eyes suddenly lit up and her face seemed to be glowing with joy. “Where is he?”

Jealousy filled Xia Xinglie once again. Is this girl possessed? Why is she so obsessed with that boy all the time?

How would that make I, the Ultimate Demon Sword Emperor, feel?

After a while, Xia Xinglie said weakly, “You will know when the Dao Debate Assembly is over.”

Even so, Xia Xiaochong was very happy. Resting her little face in her hands, she stared intently at the light screen that was casting scenes of the Mythical Huang Secret Realm. “When I see Big Brother, I’m going to invite him over to our Great Dao Ninth Heaven Palace…”

Xia Xinglie stared at her blankly, feeling more and more weak.

“Father, don’t you still have a bottle of divine light wine? Let’s serve it to Big Brother Lin Xun when he comes.”

Xia Xinglie’s lips twitched. This girl is even after the family’s fortune because of that boy!

She…

A grown daughter can’t be kept at home…

Xia Xinglie’s heart became filled with a fog of sadness and worry. If this continues, what should I do in the future?

……

The Mythical Huang Secret Realm.

Lin Xun thought the world was spinning around him. The scenery abruptly changed and he found himself standing in a canyon.

Shua!

The Broken Blade flashed out and circled Lin Xun as he scanned the surroundings vigilantly. He only relaxed once he found that no danger was nearby.

He turned his hand over, and a jade talisman was sitting in his palm. It was crafted from an unusual green beast bone and it was engraved with obscure dao runes that looked like earthworms drifting around.

It was a life talisman.

Once lost, he would be eliminated!

After putting away the life talisman, Lin Xun did not launch into action right away. He was the only one near the canyon, so, at least for the time being, he was safe.

“The more life talismans I obtain, the more killings I will experience. If I don’t kill them, they will kill me...” Lin Xun thought.

He was not afraid of facing anyone in a one-on-one battle, but there would definitely be many people who had formed alliances just like Lu Dubu, Xie Yuhua, and the others had done.

Therefore, he had to be on guard at all times.

In particular, if people such as Ling Hongzhuang and Huangfu Shaonong were to work together, they would definitely be a huge threat to him.

After a long while, Lin Xun made a decision.

With a wave of his sleeve, he began to move through the canyon.

Array flags shot out from him like streams of water and inserted into different areas of the canyon.

After a moment, a dao rune restriction array took shape.

“Conceal!”

As Lin Xun chanted, the obscure array vanished into thin air.

“Even a crafty hare has more than one burrow, let alone humans?”

Lin Xun clapped his hands and thought to himself, “Even if I run into danger, at least there is somewhere I can hide.”

In the Mythical Huang Secret Realm, the most terrifying thing that could happen to Lin Xun was not running into a strong opponent but getting injured in battle.

Once injured, even powerful experts like Ling Hongzhuang and Huangfu Shaonong would be targeted by countless people!

After all, all participants of the Dao Debate Assembly were respected top figures of the Supreme Saint-King Stage, and each of them had already achieved a near-perfect cultivation base in this stage. In other words, the difference in strength between them was not that huge.

If people like them formed alliances and acted together, it was easy to imagine how great of a threat they would be.

Lin Xun set up an array as a precautionary measure so as to have a place to hide if he was being hunted down or if he ran into a dangerous situation.

“Next, I need to quickly reunite with Xuanyue. And it would be good if we could work together with Lu Dubu and the others.

“No matter what, I must be extra careful when I move around. If I encounter an opponent, I shall kill them if I can, and if not, I shall flee right away…”

While planning his next move, Lin Xun darted into the distance with a flash.

On the Mythical Huang Main Peak, Taishu Hong and other Emperors were all closely watching the movements in the Mythical Huang Secret Realm.

They all had thought that their own disciples and descendants were extraordinary and they had nothing to worry about. However, after careful observation, they found that…every participant was extremely shrewd, smart and experienced, and each of them possessed remarkable abilities. It was not good to mess with any one of them

For example, the moment they entered the Mythical Huang Secret Realm, someone immediately summoned a group of puppets to scout out the place and help lead the way.

Someone transformed into a mass of dust and disappeared without a trace.

Someone commanded a tide of venomous insects…

“The youngsters nowadays are much stronger than we were back then. Each one of them is very capable.” An Emperor remarked with a smile.

“On the path of the great dao, the new generation will of course surpass the old. Look, someone has transformed into a river and merged with the world of the Mythical Huang Secret Realm.”

“That kid is impressive. He just entered the Mythical Huang Secret Realm and he already killed someone and got the first life talisman. Who is that kid?”

“I don’t recognize him.”

“He seems to be from another world.”

The Emperors chatted leisurely.

Someone noticed Lin Xun setting up an array and couldn’t help but make a comment, “That boy is pretty clever, he prepared a way out for himself in advance.”

Hearing this, Xia Xinglie set down his drink and said aloud, “That kid is not just clever. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be one of the one hundred and eight people to enter the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone.”

Many other Emperors looked surprised.

This was because everyone could tell that Jin Duyi was not a prominent figure from an ancient sect or clan. He was just the number one expert of Cloud State.

Despite that, the Ultimate Demon Sword Emperor treated him differently.

“Could it be because that kid had injured Kong Zhao at the main gate?” someone teased.

Ultimate Seal Battle Emperor from the Primordial Dao Court wrinkled his brows and looked at Xia Xinglie. “Do you really think so, Fellow Daoist?”

“Of course.” Xia Xinglie answered casually, “I am not trying to target the Primordial Dao Court. I just want to say that Jin Duyi is far stronger than you all think. If you don’t believe me, then just wait and see.”

He had decided to say this after some consideration. If Lin Xun performed too amazingly, with the groundwork he had laid, at least the Emperors present would not be too astonished.

Otherwise, it would definitely attract the attention of many old monsters and bring trouble for Lin Xun.

After all, no disguise was flawless, especially under the watchful eyes of a group of Emperors.

Ultimate Seal Battle Emperor looked visibly displeased. He felt that Xia Xinglie was targeting Kong Zhao and his own Primordial Dao Court.

But he dared not say anything to the Ultimate Demon Sword Emperor.

It should be mentioned that Xia Xinglie had an unpredictable temper. Once he flipped out, no one could stop him. He also would not care about any Dao Debate Assembly.

Only Xia Xiaochong looked puzzled. Why would Father pay so much attention to Jin Duyi? Could it be that he is Big Brother Lin Xun in disguise?

After this, she also began to pay attention to Jin Duyi.

Noticing this, Xia Xinglie sighed to himself. Look, that’s my daughter! She is indeed intelligent!

……

Lin Xun had not left the canyon for long when—

Boom!

A wave of energy rippled over from a distance.

Lin Xun activated the Suanni Qi right away and his entire body became transparent while his aura became concealed. Only then did he quietly approach the area.

A fierce battle was breaking out in the wilderness. On one side were five people, and on the other were two. They all fought with all their might...

The sky and the earth dimmed and divine light beamed everywhere.

They were all dazzling figures from the Great Primordial Chaos World. Of course, they fought with astonishing destructive power.

However, the Mythical Huang Secret Realm was extremely mysterious. The obscure law force that shrouded the mountains and rivers diminished the destructive power and reduced the damage to the landscape.

In the outside world, battles between Supreme Saint Kings could have easily ravaged mountains and seas, but in the Mythical Huang Secret Realm, it barely shook the mountains.

This was because of the difference in law power.

A black-robed man urged, “Everyone, stop fighting. There are at least a dozen experts lurking about. When the snipe and the clam fight, it is the fisherman who will reap the benefit.”

“What? A dozen?” The others trembled inwardly.

No one knew how big the Mythical Huang Secret Realm was, and they thought that their battle would not attract any attention in such a short period of time. But it turned out that people were already lurking in the area!

Swoosh!

Their spirit sense spread out across the area to investigate.

At this moment, the black-robed man laughed, “Spirit Extinguishing Lantern, rise!”

A purple octagonal lantern flew out from his hand. As the wick swayed, it shot out a bright streak of flames.

A chain of flames wrapped around the spirit sense released by the experts and began to burn fiercely.

Many people felt everything darken before them and their spirit throbbed with pain.

They groaned in agony.

“This is bad, it’s a treasure that targets the spirit!”

“Damn it, that kid is cheating!”

Loud shouts rang out. They were all powerful and impressive cultivators, but at this moment they did not hesitate to choose to flee.

“Do you think you can escape?” The black-robed man laughed with the purple octagonal lantern floating above his head.

With a flash, a blade slashed forth.

Unable to escape in time, an expert was submerged in raging blade qi. Just as he was about to be killed, the space shook violently and he was brought out of the Mythical Huang Secret Realm.

The life talisman that belonged to him fell from midair and was caught by the black-robed man.

Without any pause, he charged at another expert, laughing maniacally.

The purple octagonal lantern rotated above his head and unleashed another streak of blazing flames to cling to the opponent. Like a chain bound to his spirit, he was unable to break free no matter how he tried.

Lin Xun’s pupils shrank at the sight of such a peculiar treasure that targeted the spirit.
